The Batt

I have a huge website (over 4,000 pages). Been building it with
Frontpage (currently using FP 2003) for nearly a decade. Lately, I
have been having problems adding new stuff as it freezes up whenever I
do hyperlinks. I did some googling and found some suggestions to fix
it, but the problem seems to be too many pages. Other than getting
rid of a ton of pages, any suggestions? Would upgrading to one of
Microsoft's other program, eliminate this? Or is there other ways to
possibly consolidate pages? Any suggestions are welcomed. Here is
the site address:

Thanks!
 
If you are not already doing so, consider splitting the website into
subwebs - one subweb for each topic, perhaps. Each subweb will be
treated by FrontPage as a separate website, thus removing (or reducing)
the number-of-pages problem.

If you are working live on the server then the following applies:

While there is no limit to the number of files., or total size of
website, that *FrontPage* can manage, some systems do have limits,
especially web servers that impose time limitations on processing web
requests. This will include the "Recalculate Hyperlinks" command (seen
as "Processing Web Updates") on the server that automatically follows
every publish. A web of the size you have may be too big for the
server.

Using subwebs will reduce or eliminate your specific problem and that
mentioned above.

Made two subdomains and moved over about 1,8000 pages. So far it
seems to be working. Thanks for the suggestion.
